The Off Season is the touching sequel to Dairy Queen. The book starts shortly after the end of the first. D.J's life is going great. She passed softmore english, she is a true member of the football team, and she sees Brian, all the time. And did I mention the farm is almost broke? And then, in a blink of an eye, D.J's world crashes around her. With one tackle and the tragic injury of Win, D.J's oldest brother, D.J once again has to take all of the family's problems on her shoulders, but can she handle it?

This book was a great follow up to Dairy Queen. D.J's character is pretty original, and I like that. She, like her family, is stubborn and does not give up easily. I want to see more of D.J, and all of you should read these books!!

God, spelling exercise is really not my thing. I have officially spelled it wrong twice now. Usually, I am a good speller, but I just could not spell exercise. Well, now it is spelled correctly, thank you to google, while I was looking up my blog, it showed the spelling mistake.

I am sorry, but it will be awhile before there is a new review. Final exams are upon us, well for those who have finals, and plus I only just got a new book to read. But that doesn't mean stop checking because I will still post. I'd say there should be a new review next week. It would be earlier, but I am gone all weekend. Does anyone have a brain teaser they would like posted? Leave a comment.
